4f52867d95 Don't \input boilerplate.tex, fill in the real stuff. 3rd party
documents probably aren't written by Guido.  ;-)

87f768e20b Attempted to clarify usage of the \declaremodule macro somewhat;
Michael Hudson's documentation for bytecodehacks exhibits incorrect
usage.

Added some comments about how to set up the mkhowto script for use
with documents not contained in the documentation source tree.

3e4c614c16 define_module(): Check the module type for validity before using.
This reflects the changes made in

5bc8d99bce \declaremodule: Make this more robust. Only attempt to add an index
entry based on the module type if the type is known.
		 Otherwise, spit out a warning the the module type
		 parameter was bad and generate a "plain" index entry.

		 Without this, the bad module type was emitted as
		 text.

Problem noticed by processing Michael Hudson's docs for
bytecodehacks.

8ee593cb46 The conversion temporary files should not be ignored here anymore,
since they shouldn't be here.  Only ignore the output tarballs in this
directory.

431f0ce547 Small nits around some of the index entries.

number.

ab03215204 make_index_entry(): Remove. Not only did this override the
l2hinit.perl version of the function (which
		     overrode a version in latex2html), but
		     do_cmd_index() was overridden.  Since
		     do_cmd_index() was the only caller, we can trash
		     this.

define_indexing_macro():  New function used during setup to support
			  more dynamic dispatch for indexing.

process_index_macros():  New function; implement dynamic dispatching
			 of indexing support functions, allowing many
			 targets used in indexing to be shared by
			 multiple index entries.  I.e., something like
			 \index{foo}\bifuncindex{bar} can now share a
			 single target anchor.

These indexing changes reduce the amount of clutter in the generated
HTML files.  In the reference manual, this cuts the number of targets
by 44%.  Targets are less affected when generated by environments
rather than macros.

76febdf3fd make_index_entry(): Remove. This is overridden in python.perl and

2697694e4a ExtendedEsisBuilder.push(): Override inherited definition. We don't

a871c2e747 Make it work for "manual" documents as well as "howto" documents.

1. Fixes float divmod so that the quotient it returns is always an integral
value.

2. Fixes float % and float divmod so that the remainder always gets the
right sign (the current code uses a "are the signs different?" test that
doesn't work half the time <wink> when the product of the divisor and the
remainder underflows to 0).

8e40759d5a Nathan Paul Simons noticed that the grid_remove() method was missing.
(The difference between grid_remove() and grid_forget() is that the
former remembers the options for the slave.)

I'm still unsure, but couldn't stand the virtual event trickery so tried a
different sin (adding undo_block_start/stop methods to the Text instance in
EditorWindow.py).  Like it or not, it's efficient and works <wink>.  Better
idea?

Give the attached a whirl.  Even if you hate the implementation, I think
you'll like the results.  Think I caught all the "block edit" cmds,
including Format Paragraph, plus subtler ones involving smart indents and
backspacing.
